Interesting fact

The 20 Halierov coin from Slovakia, minted between 1942 and 1943, was made of aluminum, which was a unusual choice of material for coins at that time. Aluminum was used because other metals like copper, silver, and gold were scarce or too expensive to use for coinage during World War II. This coin's unique composition makes it stand out among other coins from that era and adds to its collectible value.
